I love the soft and gentle focus on the hand holding the dirt. You made great use of soft pastel colors and depth of field to frame your subject. I also adore the message of this photo. Beautiful and fascinating. Congrats on the DD!

I can't remember what drew me to your gallery - but I know that I just couldn't decide which of your pieces to suggest! I was actually stuck between this piece and a few from your Laura - Walking the rails series. All I knew was that you deserved a DD.

This is interesting!I think for me you made the right decision!Comparing the pictures, the Walking the Rails series focuses more on the model. This piece is more about the idea and what people interprete into it.

This is a wonderful shot! I love the focus on her hand with the dirt and the softness surrounding it. Great lighting, great detail, great placement and dof. That little bit of color on her nails adds so much to this. Fantastic job!

I love this piece. Of course I relate to it a lot, but the angle, the color, the idea and the feel are so wonderful that I'd have loved it even if I didn't relate. Thanks for creating such beautiful art and congrats on the DD!

I can't explain it well, but I feel like she could be me. It's probably not what you had in mind, but the dirt in her hand for me symbolizes a great effort, one that has not been in vain, if not a complete success. At the same time, she's lying on the ground, like she's drained. And finally, the blurry atmosphere, almost misty, makes everything vague. So all of that, is kind of my story. Oh and her nakedness, gives her a purity of character which I love.

It IS great to feel that despite all the oppression here, we can still communicate with artists all around the world! (of course I'm using a proxifier, dA is fltered in Iran!)

That is exactly what I had in mind. Censorship. It is very encouraging to see that people are finding a way around this madness.This is what I love about dA you find people like yourself from everywhere around the world. Not only certain spots.
